Hemidakota posted info on it the other day. You might do a search of his posts to find it

While the Razor was slightly unappealing to the eye, the Saturn concept is down-right FUGLY!

First non-truck GM that has come out in the last 10+ years I would consider buying.

I don't much care for the looks of the front, but I could care less since I'll be sitting in the drivers seat.

Last I heard it will be produced and it might have an option of a 2.4l supercharged engine.

from the pics arioch linked to, i personally would put them on the same level style-wise. i like the way both of them look. i do like the razor better though, it looks a little...sharper for lack of a better word.

i'll look at hemidakota's threads, i didnt see anything about this car before. i thought it was introduced at the show.

I like the Saturn Cirve. Its built off of the Pontiac Soltise *sp?* frame and the Pontiac is just down right ugly!

Sports car performance is derived from a supercharged 2.2-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine that produces more than 200 horsepower and more than 200 lb.-ft. of torque. The engine features fuel-saving variable valve timing technology, which is available on some of GM's four-, five- and six-cylinder engines. Through the use of variable engine valve timing, lift and duration can improve fuel economy, emissions and performance. The transmission is a Getrag five-speed manual.

The engine and transmission are similar to the powerful combination found in the new 2004 Saturn ION Red Line.

Power 171.5 kw / 230 bhp @ 6200 rpm
Torque 298.28 nm / 220 ft lbs @ 4200 rpm


Hmmm...could this be a peek at the performance #s of the ion redline? Looks VERY close to an SRT-4's stock #s!

shouldnt you rename yourself to SlowCaddyDTS?

hehe

I havent seen any press release stating the #s of the ion redline, if I missed it I apologize. The only thing i've seen are press releases that say "approximately 200 horses/200 torque" they never mention the RPM range or look like "official numbers".

Yeah the numbers have been out for awhile now. They've already done tests to the car and they weren't really impressive. I believe they got a 15.0 or a 15.1 out of it in the 1/4. Big deal. The SRT-4 has nothing to worry about.
